Who wants to put the combined MT heads together and make some $?Posted by LSUAlum2001 on 1/2/13 at 4:47 pm

I'm talking about a consensus of stocks everyone thinks could make a 5% (or more) movement over the next 7-14 days? The goal would be to move in. Hit a small goal and move out for another consensus stock.

Example:

Mosaic reports earnings on Friday and we all believe a good earnings report is coming out and expect a jump from $57.50 before earnings release. (** This is in example and I am not endorsing Mosaic.)

Start with some small $ figure like $5K.

We can do it as a project for a few months (without real cash) to see if we can consistently see a 5% goal.

And after the initial research period? How would funds be set up, percentage interests and share ownership be accounted for and managed? Who would be doing the portfolio management and buy/sell transactions? Any margin trading? If margin, I'm out I'm not going to get caught with my pants down trading margin.

What about dividends? Reinvested dividends to purchase additional shares (of same or different stocks) or issue dividends based on share/contribution interests?

ETA: Just reread OP and see you're looking at more of short term day trading.

#2. Terafly...Analysts don't like it. I do. The breakup value is twice the market price. The deal finances itself. Sell off two divisions.

#3. Bluestar Airlines. A comer. 80 medium-body jets. 300 pilots, flies northeast, Canada, some Florida and Caribbean routes...great slots in major cities...There was a crash last year. They just got a favorable ruling on a lawsuit. Even the plaintiffs don't know...the decision'll clear the way for new planes and route contracts. There's only a small float out there, so you should grab it. Good for a five point pop.
